The Billionaires Desires novel Chapter 2

First of all, this company does not belong to Travis or my crazy uncle right there. It belongs to the Trent household and since I’m the new leader in the family, it belongs to me and I can assure you all that this company and every other thing that belongs to the Trent family is not for sale.” I let out firmly.

“Keep telling yourself that and maybe you will finally believe it yourself, Nathan. I guess your father has been too busy with his new family and he has not had time to fill you in on everything that has been happening in the company. The company is going under, there is nothing left to salvage in this damn company. The shares are all gone, all our shareholders sold out their shares and the board of directors has all sold out their stakes in this company. We have no more investors to run to, we had to sell off everything to pay the high bank debt that was incurred over the years. Right now, we still owe the banks some money too, the only way to raise that money and avoid bringing shame into the family is to sell off some properties, including this office building and everything in it. That is what your brother was trying to do, he is trying to save us from shame and embarrassment. We should all be grateful for all he is doing for the family, you should be grateful to him. This is no way to show appreciation Nathan, you have no right to come in here and call him names, you have no right to treat him this way. You are just an ungrateful child and I know you are jealous of your brother because he came up with a solution to our issues while you were busy hiding out in God knows where. If you wanted to save this company, you should have come back sooner, you should have come back home immediately but you greedily chose to go back home and acquire the family seal. Unfortunately, you can’t save this company, even with that seal. I’ll advise you to give up already, you won’t win this war that you are about to start.” My uncle warned me sternly, trying to stare me down. I laughed at his stupid attempt at being brave, he looked so ridiculous. The fact that he actually thinks that he can talk his way out of this is quite amusing.

“You really have no shame, do you?” I asked him sarcastically, looking at him squarely. 

“Well, if you must know uncle, I have recovered eighty percent of the company's shares, and right now as we speak, my tech guy Fred is transferring back the family funds into my account, I have recovered all the funds that you and your son stole. I got them back from the foreign accounts that you and Travis siphoned all the family funds to. 

Oh, and guess what Travis, you no longer have a marketing and construction company, I changed the documents already. You acquired that company with the family funds and you stole contracts that should have been handled by our company, so it’s only natural that the company is merged with ours, right. 

All the contracts you stole have also been recovered and I have taken everything back from you, so right now, our company is bigger than it used to be because all thanks to you, we have been an to add a new branch in a foreign country. 

You have nothing anymore Trav, and as I speak to you right now, you and your father have been banished from the family. Every property in your possession that belongs to the family will be retrieved from you two. In case you don’t understand what I’m talking about, I’ll break it down to your understanding. You two will be thrown out of your houses and all the cars and properties in your possession will be taken away from you. I’m kicking you two out to the streets, let’s see how you survive in the slums.” I spat out in disgust, ignoring the look of shock on their faces.

“Y… Y… You can’t do that. Dad, tell him he can’t do that.” Travis screamed in frustration and at that very moment, their phones started beeping with alerts from all their foreign accounts that they had hidden our money. I smiles as I saw the look of shock and fear on their faces. My uncle was simply speechless and so were Travis and my father.

“You have no idea what you have just done, I’ll get you for this, I’ll make you pay. You have no idea what I’m capable of, I won’t let you get away with this, I won’t let you do this to us.” My uncle barked out in annoyance, making me chuckle at his frustration.

“Actually uncle, I do know what you are capable of. You and your son sabotaged my plane, remember?

But don’t worry dear uncle, you won’t get another chance to play tricks on me again. By the time I’m done with you, you will wish you have never crossed paths with me. You just hold on, dear uncle. I’ve got lots of surprises for you and your son.” I responded with a smile that did nothing to ease his frustration. He seems to be getting more agitated by the second as their phones kept chirping nonstop. I tapped the button under my table and the screen at the back of my chair came on immediately and everything could see the company’s accounts as the money kept coming in. On the other side of the screen, our ongoing projects and contracts were boldly outlined in detail, including our contracts with the government that Travis stole from our company. That company is now mine and everything they stole from me has been retrieved, but I’m still not done with them. 

“Alright guys, the sow is over the as you can see over there, we aren’t bankrupt as some people would like you to believe, on the contrary, we at actually expanding and rebranding. Now you can all get the fuck out of this building, I don’t want to see your faces in this building, not unless you want to do good business with us. Thank you all for coming and thank you for being a bunch of greedy assholes, now get the fuck out of here before I change my mind.” I ordered fiercely, forcing them out as they ran towards the exit. Travis and my uncle also wanted to leave with the others but they got held back by my boys at the exit. My father and his son looked on in shock, I can see the nervous looks on their faces, but I had no time for them now. I’m still dealing with the bigger traitors.

“Leaving so soon?

Oh come on guys, I’ve been gone for quite a while, didn’t you miss me?” I asked with a smirk, looking up at them with a smug smile on my face.

“What else do you want from us, Nathan?

You have taken everything from us, you even went as far as banishing us from the family and taking everything from us. What else do you want?” Travis yelled furiously as he struggled to break free from the firm grip of my boys.

“Oh come on, dear cousin. I spent months stranded on that island that you and your father put me in. I was chased and hunted like a fucking animal. I had to struggle to survive every damn day, I had to run and fight for months before I got a chance to escape. Do you really think that I’m done with you two, do think that you have been punished enough?

Well, I don’t think so. I need you to experience what it feels like to run for your life, I want you to run and fight and struggle to stay alive, won’t that be fun?” I asked with a smile that only added to their nervousness.
